Why did you guys break EVERYTHING...

I'm sure you won't put this in the "intelligent" question genre but...
I've been using cygwin for years and I brag about it and make all my teammates install it and make my managers refuse to piss away money on MKS...
Well, I think that party's over.  I just installed the new distribution and every one (and I mean EVERY GODDAMN ONE) of my scripts that call any of your routines that need to know what a host or a directory are f#$king broke.  What in god's name is "/usr/local/bin" on a windows machine?  Why don't you UNIX weeneies get a grip.  F#$king fix it.  It used to be great.  Now I can't even change a directory.
I've gone back to your old, unsupported code until we can find the money to equip our team with MKS for $400 a throw.  Thanks for making a great product unusable.

Sincerely,
Barry Schwartz
